I have a genuine question.
Is wayland preferred over X11 in CachyOS? There have been instances that indicate the same.
Wayland seems to be popular among the forum members. I want to know the choice from the developers of this distro who have definitely preferred one over the other (Wayland vs X11) based on the merit of the technologies.
The motivation for my question is to align myself with the paradigm of the developers of the distro. I have no special love for either wayland or X11. I consider them as a tool to get the work done. I believe when in Rome, be a Roman. Hence, after knowing the answer here, I will stick to the CachyOS developers’ preferred display technology as and when I use CachyOS.
-
In the latest install ISO, in X11 the settings for touchpad is not being shown in KDE settings, but in wayland it is.
-
The team proactively changed the SDDM to start with Wayland before the rest of the Arch ecosystem.
Correct me if I am wrong, general software support for wayland lags behind X11 till date.
